I did not know that

there is such a big basement "mall" at the Singapore's Terminal 3. Every time we arrived at Terminal 3, we just exit out at Arrivals and gone. Today I did have a chance to walk around the entire Terminal 3 (wherever I was allowed).

I checked in the Crown Plaza at Terminal 3; setup my "base of operation" before the 1:30am flight back to Shanghai. I walked around and around. Then I noticed a sign pointing down and down deeper below the ground level. Wow. SGD 4.50 for a Hainan Chicken Rice. Nothing was more than SGD 6.00. And there was even a supermarket called Fair Price. Packed. The Departure Level of Terminal 3 looked so deserted compared to this basement level. People came here just to walk around! And students occupied tables to do group assignments and studies. Go figure! Who would have known this place is a popular hangout for Singaporeans!

I had this SGD 4.50 for lunch. Then had the urge to have something sweet. A piece of cake and a Cappuccino had cost me SGD 11.50. Haha, I could have two set lunches for that price.

At this basement level, all sorts of South East Asian food and dessert. Massage, spa, candy stores and always those so healthy cake shops and donuts shops.

Interesting.
